Presenting you LiquidSmooth for Sensation

UNOFFICIAL VERSION

Official LiquidSmooth site

Code:
[CENTER][SIZE="7"]Important[/SIZE]

Since I'm getting some pm's about rom related things these days, some info here.
I don't work on the rom itself, so I can't/won't fix any rom related bugs (e. g. wrong translations).
I use ivanich's kernel and device trees and I modify only the device tree, not the kernel.
If you have any questions about rom related things (features or something) search for it first.
I don't mind if people ask if they can't find something immediately, but often a quick search on google or in the forum is much faster, than posts or new threads.
If you don't have 10 posts to post in here, ask in the Q&A thread which is linked in Dev:DB bar.
And most important don't except from me to do anything just because you want it, though you can ask politely.

Thank you![/CENTER]

Just wanted to check new roms for Senny and... BAM! LiquidSmooth! Thanks for keeping our device alive!
You're welcome :D
I gave this build a quick test today and had no issues, though there might be something not working.
If anyone finds something, please give me as much information as possible.

I have to admit, I didn't have time to test the rom itself and it's features, I just gave it a quick test if it's working.
Maybe @v.konvict or @PeaterG can tell you something, since they tested it for me.
Didn't run this for very long but what I did see of it was fine, honestly can't say it did anything special. Idk much about the liquid smooth ROMs though.

Viper4Android

V4A is integrated in this ROM, but still needs installing its kernel driver. The install dialoge return an error that my busybox version is wrong.
I tried to install a new version with installer apps from play store and changing the ROM version of V4A with the one i got downloaded. The error was there on all...

For me V4A is very important(can't live without it^^), but I like the features of this ROM. Maybe will come up with a idea.

Skype problems?

Not sure whether this is related to the ROM or my phone. Haven't tried Skype since I installed Carbon ROM a month or so ago so don't know for sure it was working before, but it definitely isn't working now.

App starts and all my favs and people are there, I can even tap on one of the contacts and start a call but no sound and they don't receive the call. Also, when they try to call me it says I'm available but I don't get their call, even though it sounds like it's ringing at their end.

Anyone else tried Skype on this one?

This is definitely not a show stopper for me... love the ROM otherwise and obviously don't use Skype much! I use GrooveIP (and that works fine)

The only issue I know about skype is that while in call there might be no sound, but that can be fixed by enable and disable the speaker.

Yeah I had tried to do that but tapping the speaker button in call seems to just end the call.

I'm sure this will be fixed upline and again not a real problem for me.

Thanks

Great ROM! The only bug I encountered is the CPU settings not being applied to the second core (always 1,5 GHz max clock).
Cyanogenmod bug(since all ROM's kangs cm upstream), reproducible at all cm devices, for example Nexus4(mako) is affected.
Use 3dparty app(trickster, etc.) till cm fixes that.
